Briefing Day: Audit & Compliance Under Basel II<br />

Monday 14th May 2007<br />

It is estimated that banks world-wide are going to spend around 50 billion dollars implementing Basel II,<br />

mainly by introducing huge new systems, new infrastructure and armies of new risk managers to help<br />

monitor and manage risk. Since the more definitive division of active risk management has come from<br />

internal audit over recent years, it is important that internal auditors are clear about the critical role they<br />

need to play in all of the current frenetic activity. This intensive briefing day brings together internal audit<br />

Compliance Reporter is the only news-breaking source that exclusively covers compliance initiatives at broker/dealers and investment advisers, as well as<br />

regulations and enforcement actions from entities such as the National Association of Securities Dealers, the Securities and Exchange Commission, the U.S. Court<br />

of Appeals and state regulatory agencies. Compliance Reporter informs its readers of enforcement actions that are levied against their competitors. Knowing what<br />

the firm down the street was fined for may help you change your strategy and avoid a similar penalty. It also keeps you up on other firms’ strategies, giving you<br />

tips on what your peers are doing to stay on the cutting edge. For your free trial go to www.compliancereporter.com/freetrial<br />
